Well, that's where it sounds like this was recorded. I am not a fan of AUDs in general, but this one is particularly difficult listening.

From the snippets of what we get from this show, it sounds like the better show than the night prior. I typically associate Shakedown Street with Brent-era
...
dead, but of course it started with Keith- and some of these late '78/early '79 versions absolutely cook. This opener is no exception. It's short, fast and blistering. Same goes for the Bertha. Look at all that we miss in between! Set two is here, entire, and though this AUD recording isn't great, the band sounds fired up. Estimated->Eyes is fantastic. There’s a nice, little end jam to the eyes that segues into drums. As with the rest of set two, the drums is high energy. Unfortunately, though, I can’t give it more than three stars, mostly on the basis of the audio. Nevertheless, this show is a scorcher!

Earlier, in the afternoon, Bobby (as Bob Weir Band) played an impromptu acoustic set (with Jer, Phil & Mickey sitting in) at Loyola University ... Chicago, and now it seems to get all the attention as an historical fetish. But this show from later that night, the middle of a 3-day run, is nearly a hidden gem. Only an hour and a half trades.
First Set. There exists only a two-song fragment unless there's something in the vault. Too bad - this might be an ace set. Even with the poor source (Dang it! But hang on, it improves) the Shakedown is near perfect. "Maybe that's 'cause it's springtime." The Cassidy is just average '78, but one must salivate at the thought of the Tennessee;Passenger; Friend;Miracle that might smoke like 11/24. Or not.
Second Set. The whole set is good, put particularly the bookends. Starting with a partying Bertha, the following Good Lovin' is a flying smoker. Estimated through Terrapin is more typical of '78, but the Around and the Casey Jones are near perfect.
1st Set: B
2nd Set: B-
Overall = 3¼ stars
Highlights:
Shakedown Street - perfect; and no great source
Good Lovin' - smokin'
Ship of Fools - one of those Keith-propelled versions
Around & Around - hot version
Casey Jones - slick and leaves 'em happy at the exits
SOURCES: There is no single compiled source. The paud/wiley/11488 is the most complete, though the quality is poor and it runs slow, needing +1% pitch until Around, which needs +2% and Casey, which needs +3%. It does have the rest of Bertha and Estimated from the better source. That source is schley/andrewf/flac1644. It has the Cassidy and a partial Bertha (with a lesser qual Ship and Estimated), and runs a tad slow, needing +1% pitch. The sbd/samaritano/32879 is the Bob Weir Band at Loyola, but also adds better-qual Ship of Fools and Estimated from this concert. Ships runs extremely fast (off by more than one key) and needs -4% pitch. Estimated needs -3% pitch. The sbd/dodd/audiohead22/remaster-7687 is the entire BWB performance from the afternoon.

starts with a FAST shakedown and refuses to let up...Estimated > Eyes is especially fantastic!
recording isn't great for a Dead show, but it's more ... than listenable compared to recordings of their contemporaries from this time period.
Deadlists has complete timings for this show, so a full version must exist...anyone?

Absolutely high energy smokin' show! Now wonder a buddy that was at this show was asking me if I had a full copy. And yes I gave it
5 stars folks. The ... recording quality has nothing to do with the performance. Only wish the taper continued recording the first set. It seems obvious he/she was having deck issues.
To Victor,
If you are still managing the archive please get back to me if you read this. I want the original non-dithered files so I can re-master this. Email me please: audiophilehead@hotmail.com
Peace,
Michael~

this what posted kindly even though it's missing the 1st set except for SHAKEDOWN STREET.
I think the recording is OK and and grateful that it is here, cause I don't see anyone else putting anything else up here to improve it, so i am happy to get what I got. It's just not as sharp and clear as what we are used to being spoiled and all, but it is still better than a lot of other recordings I have heard from almost any other band---which many tapes really sound horrible (Rolling Stones, Led zeppelin)

It's a shame there's not a better-sounding and more complete version of this available. Very nice Eyes and Terrapin here but the sound quality is not

so hot. I have a feeling this would be a solid 4-star show if we had a better recording (I'm very stingy with 5-star reviews).

This really is a heavy duty top notch version here! Actually the entire Estimated thru the end of the show is totally great. Unjustly overshadowed by the

Where is this show? Neither aud nor sbd seem to circulate on-line, though the acoustic stuff is quite common. I much prefer electric Dead - and I know
